Russell Westbrook

PG, Houston Rockets

Russell Westbrook said that he will remain on a minutes restriction for Game 7 against the Thunder on Wednesday.

Westbrook is working his way back into the lineup following the quad injury he suffered. Game 5 was his first one back, and he struggled on his way to seven points on 3-of-13 shooting in 24 minutes. He played 27 minutes in Monday's Game 6 and put up better numbers on paper with 17 points on 8-of-15 shooting, but his key mistakes and inability to keep pace with Chris Paul proved costly.
